The Evolution of Jiu-Jitsu Training
The podcast discusses how training methods in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) have significantly evolved, enabling practitioners to enhance their skills more effectively. The speaker reflects on how, in the past, practitioners had limited access to resources and had to rely on local academies for instruction, which may not have included advanced techniques. In contrast, today's athletes have immediate access to a wealth of knowledge through online platforms and premium educational courses. This shift allows for a deeper understanding of fundamental concepts and techniques, catering to various skill levels and facilitating a richer learning experience.
